Turtle Beach Atlas One Audio Cable Replacement

Introduction

Tools

Step 1

Simply grab and pull off the pads of each earpiece
You will expose the 8 clip hinges, which are covered with foamy tape.

Step 2

Carefully peel off the stickers to get to the clips.
If the adhesive appears to be too strong, heat it with a hair dryer or a hot air station.

Step 3

Pry around the edges with a prying tool and unhook the hinges with a sturdy metal prying tool.
Once all the 4 hinges are unclipped open the headset.
Open with caution! Don't remove fully as the wires are still soldered to the board.

Step 4

Desolder the top 3 connections. RIN+, LIN+, SPKR_IN
And the MIN_IN, and mic ground.
I removed the left headset too, so it is easier to work with the headset.

Step 5

Now all the wires should be free.
Grab the end of the wire at the knot and pull a bit of slack through so you can untie the knot.

Step 6

Simply insert a new cable and re-solder the wires.
See the cleaned board for reference for re-soldering.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Hi. Thanks for this guide. Any idea where to obtain the correct replacement cable, and which wires correspond to which positions on the jack plug? Thanks.

I bought replacement cable on ebay. Look for 4 core cables (shielded if possible to reduce interference). Just use the continuity setting on your DMM to make sure you connect the new wire back the correct order.

On the ones I fixed the colouring was as below

RIN+ red

LIN+ green

SPKR_IN orange (ground)

MIC_IN+ white

MIC_IN- red+green striped (ground)

If you get a cable with a jack plug already mounted the correct connection from the tip of the jack plug to the cable side is as follows

LIN+

RIN+

SPKR_IN

MIC_IN+

Hope it helps!
